I am the dark messiah, come to set my people free
You have had your time of weeping, now give your love to me
I have seen my children suffer from above where the crow floats
I've prepared a field of lilies for to feed my precious goats
I Am... the raped, the spit upon, the exiled, the hated
I Am... the souls of all the things that died while they debated
God's love? We never taste it - every day more proof is given
Would you rather reign here with me or suffer more in Heaven?
Why should we give obedience, subservience, and lies
To those who with smug sanctimonious smiles watch us die?
I Am... the infant monster that was left upon the hill
I Am... the restless memories, my hunger never filled
Hear me out - freaks, ghosts, and rebels - I am you, and you are me
Only if we stand together can we seize eternity
I am the dark messiah, I ask for no bended knee
Rise, my dark ones, stand beside me now and give your love to me.
